Frequently Asked Questions
How much does laser hair removal cost?
Laser hair removal treatments vary in cost based on the size and number of areas being treated, as well as how many sessions you will need to get optimal results. If you concerned about the costs of laser hair removal, consider the energy and time you are putting into waxing, shaving, or other methods. By comparison, laser hair removal is usually less expensive overall and can save you time and energy in the long-run.
Is laser hair removal permanent?
An effective treatment, laser hair removal offers long-lasting improvements. While men and women can enjoy the benefits of the treatment for many years, it is considered semi-permanent because some hair may not be affected by the laser. Regardless, patients find the majority of their hair is not growing anymore once their plan is finished, and even if a few hairs are still growing, it's very easy to deal with. More laser hair removal sessions can be needed to take care of new growth and any stragglers as well.
Why do I need multiple laser hair removal sessions?
Your hair growth occurs in cycles. When some follicles are in a live growing phase, other follicles are resting. Since every hair follicle is in a different stage, multiple sessions are typically recommended to target each hair when it's active. Scheduling your treatments over a few weeks helps you get the smoothest, most effective result.
Does laser hair removal hurt?
Your laser hair removal session may cause mild discomfort, but it's not a painful procedure. You will likely feel a slight sting as the Harmony XL PRO handpiece zaps the follicle; however, it is quite tolerable and most patients think it hurts much less than waxing. We can use a numbing ointment on your skin before the start of your treatment if you are worried about pain.
